Oh The Lies We Tell (Tanka)

Oh the lies we tell

To deceive our reflection

But fooling no one

The mirror–superficial

Cannot reveal the true soul

  1. perhaps it is because our mirrored image is not a true reflection of our soul. I love the thought in this piece.

    • That was exactly my point. We place so much emphasis on our outward appearances that we forget about what is truly important…what is inside of ourselves. I’m very glad that you like this piece, I really appreciate it.
